The Constitution doesn't forbid the sitting President of the United States to give orders.

It doesn't forbid a CONSTITUTIONALLY ELIGIBLE POTUS from giving orders. You need to think this through before you post, chief.

I did think throught it. It’s birthers who aren’t thinking. We agree that Obama is not a natural born citizen according to our understanding of the original definition and our interpretations of WKA.

However, we disgaree that he is the sitting POTUS. Unless and until Obama is found legally ineligible by a governing authority, he is executing the office of POTUS.

Many believed that McCain-Feingold was unconstitutional when it was passed. Did that belief prevent its effect upon us? No. It was the law of the land and enforced as such until it was overturned and found to be unconstitutional.

Many of us believe that ObamaCare is unconstitutional. Does that belief prevent its effect upon us right now? No. Unless and until it is found to be unconstitutional, it has the full effect of law.

The same holds true for Obama as the sitting POTUS. Unless and until he is found to be constitutionally disabled, he sits in the Oval Office and executes his duties.
